sorry to say but both of your mails did not make much sense to me. if we would not say ourselves die-hard ARR fans and not share our love for him here, where else we are supposed to do that? after all this is the main objective of having a fan group. and what Dinesh described was certainly not stupid but exciting and heart-warming. > There should be a code of conduct which every member must follow.
